Artis Amsterdam Royal Zoo

Överraskande brett utbud

Mitt i staden ligger detta Zoo som har ett överraskande brett utbud av djur. Jaguar, elefanter, gorillor, brett utbud av fåglar, dussintals små pingviner, fjärilshus, reptilhus, apor, med mera. Allt beläget i skön parkliknande miljö beströdd med kaféer. Man kan strosa omkring där ganska länge och min 8-åriga son gillade stället skarpt. Därtill ett planetarium på området som är värt ett besök, även om det vid vårt besök var sparsamt med engelsk förklaring (visningen var huvudsakligen på holländska). Ligger alldeles intill Mikrobia och man kunde vid vårt tillfälle köpa biljetter till bägge som paketpris.

Välskött

Har vart till Amsterdam två gånger och vart till zooet båda gångerna, mycket fint zoo och välskötta djur, trevligt i det ena huset där man går mitt i djungeln mitt ibland apor och andra djur, de har väldigt många olika arter och ett café och en shop , rekommenderar verkligen både för vuxna och barn

Fint zoo med välskötta djur

Fint city zoo med välskötta djur. Apburen var en upplevelse som gjorde att man kom nära djuren. Prisvärt fika. Bra för både stora och små barn.

Nice trip

Great zoo, very clean. Spent half a say here and there was lots to see. Didn't get a glimpse of the Jaguar, that was the only thing we missed. Very well laid out and mostly flat, which is a bonus!

Surprisingly excellent

Ok. I'll admit that my timing might have been rare, but my wife and I struck zoo-gold with this place. Besides being a wonderful layout, ALL of the animals were active, walking, playing or otherwise "entertaining" us humans with them being......animals. Some reviews were not so stellar stating the small size of the zoo. Really? Well, if you're used to the San Diego or Indianapolis zoos, then sure, you'll breeze through this zoo relatively quick. But please don't let that keep you from this gem. And, if you do go, you might as well visit the nearby botanical gardens and exhibit which was also wonderful.

Go and see the butterflies!!

We had the most amazing weather when we visited Artis. Really hot and sunny! We loved the zoo and would definitely visit again. The butterfly section was surprisingly our favourite part. So worth going into the butterfly section if you visit!!

Please keep The Zoo alife

The love and respect for all animals grows with every minute you walk here. What a wonderful stories we heard about father and son ape,having lost their mother, the spectaculair view on the hierarchy among gorilla's.

Beautiful place to visit (and has animals)

Despite the crowd this is a very relaxing experience. The grounds are really beautiful and there’s lots of shade for those warmer days. My favourite was the butterfly house but lots of other good things. I didn’t get to see the planetarium. Several places to have lunch and/or coffee and a snack (including right next to the penguins, which is great if you are with young children). Entry price seems a bit expensive but I haven’t been to a zoo for a long time and I don’t know how it compares.

Very good experience.

It's a beautiful place, to do absolutely !!!!!!!!!!!
